Linux login doesn't allow '@' sign

Hi.

First of all, thanks for the great game, it's really fun. I look forward to buying it when it comes out of beta!

I did find a bug, though... I think: at the login screen, I can't enter the '@' character in the e-mail field. Actually, I can't enter any character that is a combination of the "Alt Gr" and some other key.

I'm running Ubuntu 8.10, using a Portuguese layout qwerty keyboard (a "Microsoft Internet Keyboard").

If there's anything else I can provide to help you fix this, just ask.

Raul

By the way, in case someone is facing the same problem and wonders how to login into the game, just type your e-mail in some other program, copy it, change to the game window and paste your e-mail in the correct text box

Thanks for the report. This should be fixed in the next patch which we'll push out Monday.

Not sure if you already took care of this one but quite a few updates later and the problem still persists.

That's very strange -- there was definitely a bug before, but I thought it was completely fixed. On WindowsXP, with my keyboard layout set to Portuguese, there used to be no way to produce @ -- after the fix, I can now press AltGr + 2 to produce @. This is still broken on Ubuntu?

Does it work when you press Ctrl+Alt instead of AltGr (eg does Ctrl+Alt+2 produce an @?)
